[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 748617, member: 15032"] Leafy What a story you write. Many of us have been down the same path but not for as long and not as hard and not with TWO! I don't know how you've done it. One day at a time is all we can do in life, especially during the hard times, the VERY hard times. I think if any of us knew this would happen to us when we had children we would have been childless. I married my husband and we each had a child at that time. We were good. But I wanted one with him. I wanted one of "ours". Boy we have all paid for that choice that I made. He was okay with whatever I wanted. I never had any idea what pain was in store for me with this last one. I don't know if I would have had that third if I could have seen the future. He is okay now, much better than I had ever imagined, and seems to be on the right track but once you have seen that type of misery, you just cannot unsee it. I agree with your latest decision. To be in their lives to let them know you love them. To do what feels good and right to you. There is no right or wrong here when dealing with this. There can be no judgement. Maybe you can be ready for this change now that your son has graduated. What are his plans now? Whatever our decision, you are doing the right thing and your heart is in the right place with all your children. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
